… when you put forward your hand to pick up something only to realize it is no longer there?
… when you realize that you want something, but can’t figure out what?
… when your heart skips a beat, but you are not sure why?
… when you are standing on a road unable to find whether it leads to your destination, or away from it?
… when you are unsure about everything around you, even about yourself?
What do you do??
The (inter)net is going crazy with the second round questioning of Mr. Shahrukh Khan (aka SRK). I could not help but highlight this very interesting post of a blogger. The outburst, no doubt emotional, but valid, does question lot of things about the American policy. It has highlighted a list of incidents that happened, but more than that, it highlights the narrowness of the American State of Mind, aptly described by the first line, a qoute.
Please read THIS post from the blog site “HitXP”
Of all the people who are screaming that VIPs are not above security, I agree. But it is not frisking we are talking about, but we are talking about Second Round of Question. Which happens when the Security Officials are not sure of the intention behind the visit to a particular country. And personally, I don’t think SRK warranted a second round of questioning.
Simply put in terms, its about the US of A realised somethings about itself, and that it being the wrong notion of it being Superior in everything. Frankly, in my opinion, it is NOT !!
Previous to this, I also had a post on what I feel about the American Foreign Policy.
It so happened, one person argued that he was doing lot of work, lot of good work. So he should be given a pay hike. But since equality has to be maintained in the house, so everyone should be given a pay hike and increase in perks. So a poll was conducted, as to who wants pay hike.
Majority of them said they needed a pay hike. And, since this is a democratic country, and in democracy, majority wins.
So, every one was awarded a Pay Hike.
Yes, that’s what happens in the Indian Parliament. All our MPs awarded themselves a hefty pay hike. How did they decide whether it was required or not?? Well they voted themselves whether they needed a pay hike or not. Yes, Dance of Democracy at its best!!!
I wish my company would also go for a democratic solution to increase my pay also!!
The most commonly known difference between animals and humans is that of being civilized. Generally, Humans are thought to be more civilized than animals.
Understanding of what is happening around me, I have concluded that Civilization could be defined as being more sophisticated in methods of killing each other and deceiving each other. On how to be insensitive to needs of people and environment around and how to loose the concept of something called Honour.
Animals fight for territory, so do we, but only in a more sophisticated way.
When Animals loose a fight, they simply walk out of the clan. When humans loose a fight, they stay back and crib about how the rules were tilted on the side of their opponent, on how they got cheated half way in between, and how they want a rematch.
Sometimes we, humans come up with reasons to fight, which actually should not matter. For example, Religion
